Traffic Safety
Over the past five years in Maryland, nearly 800 people have been killed in crashes involving an impaired driver. Approximately one-third of all crash deaths in Maryland involve drunk drivers. These are the deaths of our loved ones, friends, co-workers and community members.
The Maryland Transportation Authority Police are out enforcing impaired driving laws. If you are impaired behind the wheel, you will be arrested. Drive sober or get pulled over.
A DUI charge in Maryland can lead to license suspensions, ignition interlock devices for every car you drive, court costs, and jail time. Try impressing a date or co-workers with that. Or better yet, try explaining that to your kids.
Keeping Marylanders safe on our roadways is a priority for the Maryland Transportation Authority Police. By implementing traffic enforcement initiatives on impaired driving, seat belt use, aggressive driving, distracted driving and work zone safety, the MDTA Police are improving safety on our roads for drivers, passengers, pedestrians and bicyclists.
The MDTA Police’s goal is to reduce the number of injuries and fatalities due to motor vehicle crashes. The MDTA Police support Maryland’s Zero Deaths campaign – a partnership to save lives and prevent injuries on Maryland’s roadway. For more information, visit zerodeathsmd.gov.
If you are out on the roads, make sure you are focused on your driving and protecting yourself and those around you. It’s important to do your part by driving safely to help save lives.
